noble precepts." Of universal application
10 the human race - . whole. "But
mono Of them saw clearly how 10 ex-
press the doctrines Of religion through
every department Of knowledge and
every form Of industry, thus making the
perpetual fountains Of human emotions
. source Of invieorating and lifs-inspir-
Ing strength 10 the intellectual and will
power Of the individual in his relative
and collective CAPACITY"
The vagaries, myths and supersti-
tens Of these various popular religions
did not have their origin in the teach
ings Of these Messiahs who were simply
the inspired Of their race to higher and
better thoughts and nobler lives. They
were natural 10 the times when brute
force and crude fancies shaped human
ideas and institutions.
Pure science or demonstrated truths
10 mans enlightened understanding fol-
low naturally the incubation OF noble
precepts which seek TO inspire an aspir-
alton for truer and better life conditions
In the minds Of men.
II was pure science that revealed,
through experiment and research. "a
new heavens and new earth" TO man,
and changed the superstitious and spec
ulative vagaries Of astrology to the prac-
tical and demonstrative science Of as.
tronomy.
Until this new heavens and new
earth" burst upon mans mental vision,
the heavenly bodies were looked upon
as gods and goddesses to whom was paid
alteration, and our globe was belived to
be great plain standing upon the back
Of an immense turtle. while the reli-
gious faculties could only discern a
vague, wierd and fated control of the
human family.
In the same natural manner will ''the
new heavens and the new earth wherein
dwelleth Righteousness" of the Messinic
age appear In mans mental horizon at
the commencement of the present era,
and finally, through the reorganization
Of the social organism, in such way
that 1t will reflect '"t,e constitution of
man" ia all its parts, by providing for
the collective wants Of the human fam
lily in their natural order. poverty, vice
and crime will be eliminated from hu-
man society. In the Messianlc system
there will be no provision made for the
clashing Of interests, nor. for the sur
render Of individual rights.
The contentious for supremacy now 30
common among discoverers of fragment
ary truths and speculative experiment
els. will pass away before the rper
knowledge Of integral principles and
laws. and their universal adaptation to
the wants OF the entire human family.
The great teacher or Messiah Of the
new era will be no more nor no less than
q natural man, who has attained to his
great understanding by the culture of
his natural faculties and 20 oyers Of being
He will make NJ claim to supernatural
powers. nor will he believe in such
monstrosities. He will teach mankind
that in the culture aud true use Of the
human faculties will be found the sou,
ton Of all the evils tlat affict the race.
And through this system Of culture and
use will come the fulAllment Of the
prophecy that "the law Of life will bs
written in the hearts and put into the
minds Of all the children Of men," Hi.
scientific teachings will Revolutionlze
public sentiment, remove mans faith in
miracles and mystery, aud institute
natural order of society aud an integral
form Of government upon the ruins Of
the old. efTste custom, and doninion5 Of
authority and brute force. And all OF
his battles will be won bv reason aud
science instead Of the old way Of ap
pealiug to the arbltranent Of deadly
warfare and the use of destructive ms
,erial agencies.
"He will be the Fl q ,ber,' the strong
man of the new era" Not by rea' n Of
his great muscular strength, but by the
might aud power Of his nnderstanding.
Yet he will not force his way among
men with the voice Of authority, COM
pelling them to accept by faith that
which they cannot comprehend simply
because he has said IL; but his wisdom
will be like the gentle dea that refreshes
the thirsty soil and makes fruitful the
minds Of men.
Messianlsm commenced its great
work with giving to the world perfect
and complete ANALYSIS Of the nature of
man. upon which it basel plan for
social organism" which prDvides for
the individual aud collective wants Of
the whole human family.
This is the result of twenty,six years
of close and careful labor given by "Sid-
arthar to the working out Of the details
and demonstration, Of the laws which
rule the mind and body of man and
which constitutes perfect system Of
human life.
II is not possible for anv one person
to combine and arrange all the scien-
